Wait, why am I jumping through these paladin hoops? Half-celestials get most of the class features of paladins. Therefore, I'm going back to being a fighter/wizard.

Does anybody know if template class levels contribute towards your HD?

Level adjustment does not count towards hit dice, monster classes generally have a mix of hit dice and non hit dice levels to account for level adjustment. So, it should explicitly state as much if you are gaining hit dice...

A better question on my part would have been 'when an action has an effect based on HD, do template class levels count as increasing HD?' Based on what you said, I guess not, but I'd just like to make sure.

[Criptfeind]

The answer is no. The only time it would count is when it says ECL. Not HD or CL.

[Araph]

Good to know. I think my final revision of my character sheet is done, then. Here's the link.

[Criptfeind]

You have 23 HP.

Also, you have a large bank of money I see. Are you saving for anything?

[Araph]

You have 23 HP.

I do? So I do. My bad!

Also, you have a large bank of money I see. Are you saving for anything?

Well, I may spend more of it before the next session, but I want to save up and get my weapon enchanted.

[Criptfeind]

You need at least +1 on any magic weapon. So you might as well buy that now neh if you plan on buying it later.

[Araph]

I'm not sure I can afford even a +1. Each half of a double weapon has to be individually enchanted, right? So, 2,000 for each half, plus the 700 gp base price for a magic two-bladed sword, plus 90 gp for one silver blade, plus 50 gp for one cold iron blade, plus another 2,000 for any enchantment on the cold iron half for a grand total of 6,840 gp. Did I do that right?

That's how I thought it was awhile ago. Apparently, the 2000 is the +1 enhancement bonus, not counting the actual Shock or Bane or what-have-you.

I know, that's why I included it in the cost for a +1 sword.

Uhhh, I still don't know how a half half-elf, half-celestial even is possible. I'm calling hax on that. Plus, are you sure you want such a high level adjustment? It's gonna take FOREVER for you to level up dude. Also, WHY did you take a double blade without taking two weapon fighting? 

Also, I have no idea how much xp I need to level up and what I should start from. Do I start from 0 each time I level up, or do I go from the minimum to level up from last level? eg it takes 1000 xp to level up from level 2 to 3, and 2000 to level up from 3 to 4. Do I start from 1000 and need 1000 more to get to level 4?

[Criptfeind]

Did I do that right?

Er. No. You already have payed all the masterwork and special material costs. All it would take is just buying the +1. Which you need eventually anyway. It would only take 2000 to add +1 to ether blade. 4000 for both. Which you have. And you need anyway.

Your numbers are a bit off. It takes 1000 to go from 1 to 2. 3000 to go from 2 to 3. And 6000 to go from 3 to 4. And you do not start from zero, you keep your exp from last level.

So:

Level EXP needed

1 0
2 1000
3 3000
4 6000
5 10,000

[Zako]

So I'm starting off with 6000 xp, and I need 4000 more to get 10,000 for a level up?

[Criptfeind]

Yes. Also Mythweavers sheets actually handle most of this for you.

[Zako]

Oh ok, I thought it would be a lot more than that. Cool!

The 2000 gp for any enchantment on cold iron hasn't been paid, so I could only buy a +1 for one half of the sword.

1) A half half-elf, half-celestial is valid. Imagine the result of a half-elf and a full celestial bumping uglies. 2) Yes, I'm quite sure I want to be vastly out-leveled. 3) True, true. 4) I'm going to take that feat, but I need to either take another level of fighter to get the feat or take two levels of wizard so I can get the feat at level 3.
